Kevin Johnson - Daughter Of Darkness lyrics

And the crowd was sure, on the mezzanine floor That they never saw her leaving And the foyer at night was never too bright And the light would have been deceiving She was young and she was foolish But she was nobody's fool as well There was a vision of heaven in tangerine Was all the doorman there could tell And her face had a look of innocence And her eyes had a look of fire It never took too little of common sense To be the victim of desire And the night goes on Yes, the night goes on Daughter of darkness, child of the night Drawn by the power of those big city lights Wicked and heartless the world can be cruel They warned me of living this life, of a fool She was a cabaret singer who was hitching a ride And I was the lonely driver She just wanted to travel far and wide And I just wanted to stay beside her She was young and she was foolish But she was something else as well And through a hundred tunes in those smoke-filled rooms I watched her weave her magic spell And her face was a face of innocence But her soul was a soul on fire You never think too much of the consequence When you're a victim of desire And the night goes on Yes, the night goes on Daughter of darkness, where are you tonight Out there among those big city lights Wicked and heartless the world can be cruel They warned me of living this life, of a fool Daughter of darkness, child of the night Drawn by the power of those big city lights Wicked and heartless the world can be cruel They warned me of living this life, of a fool Daughter of darkness, where are you tonight Out there among those big city lights Wicked and heartless the world can be cruel They warned me of living this life, of a fool
